Zhao Chunlin is an all-rounder, director, executive director, coordinator, and producer, there is nothing he can't do!

And this gentleman is very happy to praise newcomers!

He is already a national first-class director, and he is still helping Ding Hei in the crew of "Jade Guanyin".

Such people are popular.

This one, "The First Floor of the World", he served as the coordinator, and at the same time, he also served as the executive director of a play, "Balzac and the Little Tailor"...

Balzac and the Little Tailor is Dai Sijie's literary debut, set in the life of educated youth, which sold 500,000 copies after being published in France, and soon had different editions in more than 20 countries.

Dai Sijie is not only a writer, he is also a director, as early as the 80s, with "Alpine Temple", won the Venice Film Festival Young Director Short Film Award.

His qualifications are the same as those of the fifth generation of directors.

However, his early creations were all in France, and after "The Temple of the Alpine", he directed three French films: "The Cowshed", "The Man Who Swallowed the Moon" and "The Eleventh Son".

By the way, he's French.

After the work was published, he wanted to shoot "Balzac and the Little Tailor", so he came to China...

Here's the problem, this is a story with a Chinese background, and the actors must choose Chinese actors.

Dai Sijie doesn't know anything about the Chinese entertainment industry, and because of the restrictions of the original work, it is impossible to find Hong Kong actors.

invited Zhao Chunlin to be the executive director and casting director, the latter recommended several actors, after the audition, the heroine set Zhou Xun, and one of the leading actors was Liu Li...

"That Mountain, That Man, That Dog", Liu Li's overseas fame far exceeds that of most domestic actors of the same age, including those Taiwanese and Hong Kong actors - the box office of this movie in Neon is 1.8 billion yen...

And Liu Ye does have a melancholy temperament, which is in line with Ma Jianling in "Balzac and the Little Tailor".

As for Brother Xun, "Suzhou River" made her famous, and last year, the starring film "Hong Kong Has a Hollywood" directed by Chen Guo was also shortlisted for Venice...

Another actor, someone recommended Chen Kun, and some people recommended Li Yapeng, Lu Yi...

Dai Sijie doesn't look down on them, Chen Kun's appearance is too feminine...

However, Chen Kun is famous, and Zhou Xun takes good care of him, if nothing else, Chen Kun should have a chance to be selected.

Zhao Chunlin doesn't like Chen Kun either...

……

"Balzac and the Little Tailor?"

Balzac, of course he knew, the French writer, what happened to him and the little tailor?

"It's the work of a French director, Dai Sijie!"

"Dai Sijie?"

The name is so familiar, I think I've heard it somewhere.

Chen Dong carefully recalled...

finally thought of it, Ya is the director of "Night Peacock", it is the scene where Liu Yifei kisses Dawn in various ways, Chen Dong should have seen it, although he doesn't know what he is talking about, but he can't replace it!

It's supposed to be a very hung director...

Otherwise, Sister Fairy wouldn't be so relieved...

Zhao Chunlin didn't care so much: "They are in Chengdu, you go to audition!"

“… Great!"

Anyway, it's fine, so it's good to try your luck!

"By the way, this is the original book, you can take a look. ”

Chen Dong took the original novel, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Then when will this movie be filmed?"

“… Soon. ”

How fast is it soon?

Chen Dong still has a TV series in his hand!

I don't know if Wang Jiawei will be nervous, and suddenly call him to act...

Then he called Zhong Lifang to inquire.

Zhong Lifang is not Chen Dong, she has many eyes and ears, and of course she knows about this movie.

She didn't know much about Dai Sijie, but she found out that "Balzac and the Little Tailor" was a very best-selling literary work in France in the past two years, and it was sold well in more than 20 European countries!

This is not the overseas version of the online article that Dian Niang blows in later generations, what 'Dian Niang International, a website that foreigners are obsessed with', 'Dian Niang International, which has treated a lot of crooked nuts'...

It's a real achievement!

There are two producers of "Balzac and the Little Tailor", namely TF1, that is, France TV and the Chinese Emei Film Factory...

The French side is responsible for the money, and the Chinese side is the one who pays for it...

It's not a co-production, and it didn't get the dragon mark.

It's a purely French film!

TF1, which is powerful, is equivalent to the French China Film Group, and it is said that they are optimistic about "Balzac and the Little Tailor", mainly because of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon": such a Chinese film in ancient costumes can be a great success, and there is no reason why a novel adaptation based on the original book will not sell!

The Chinese producer is called Wang Zhebin, the boss of Changying Studio.

originally wanted to ask Yan Yiyun to think of a way to pull the relationship, but Lao Yan is now anxious - "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" was released on RB first, and the box office was a mess...

The domestic release is imminent, Yan Yiyun is as busy as her grandson, and she has no time to take care of her niece...

In this way, Zhong Lifang and Chen Yun have no strength at all, and can only depend on luck.

……

It is said that since Chen Kun signed with Rong Xingda, he has been making continuous drama appointments, and last year he was selected as one of the four major students because of "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind"...

Although the name of the four Xiaosheng sounds very bluffing, it is not comparable to the four Xiaohuadan, not to mention anything else, Lu Yi and Hu Bin, these two goods have not worked for more than a year!

Chen Kun is very fond of "Balzac and the Little Tailor", the pursuit of actors in these years is both virtue and art, and few consider what box office, commercial...

"Balzac and the Little Tailor" has a good story and is already scheduled for next year's Cannes Film Festival...

That's enough!

What's more, there is Zhou Xun...

It's a pity that he can feel that the director doesn't like him and thinks he looks too gloomy...

But he also has an advantage, his buddy is from Chongqing and can speak Sichuan.

In the lounge, he lowered his head and thought about what he was going to do for the official audition later, and then the door was pushed open, and Chen Dong walked in...

After seeing Chen Kun, Chen Dong hurriedly trotted over and bowed slightly: "Brother Kun!"

This is his direct senior.

“… Xiao Chen?"

Seeing Chen Dong, Chen Kun was quite surprised, of course he knew about this product, a drama maniac...

"You're auditioning?"

"Seems to be, right?"

Chen Dong didn't tell the truth.

"Which character did you audition for?"

“… Director Zhao asked me to meet the director, but I don't know the specifics."

"Director Zhao?"

"Director Zhao Chunlin, I met when I was filming "Jade Guanyin". ”

"Oh..."

Chen Kun knew it now...

However, he didn't take Chen Dong seriously, in his opinion, Chen Dong should have come to audition for a small supporting role like a villager or Four Eyes...

After all, Chen Dong, whom he knows, is still a young actor who is not in the stream.

After a brief greeting, the two shut up, and there was no intention of continuing to chat.

Nortel 96, Chen Dong doesn't know much...

Of course, he knew that the famous Zhao Wei and Huang Xiaoming were both level 96, but when he went to school, he really didn't get together to make friends.

At most, it's a nod of the head...

The two waited for a while, and at nine o'clock in the morning, the door of the lounge was finally pushed open, and a little girl called, "Brother Kun, you come first." ”

"Good!"
